A little background on myself. Illinois High School Official for both baseball and softball(2 years). Also do ASA ball.



So here's the scenario. Runner on 1st, Batter pops up. Balls Caught. R1 heads back to 1st to tag the base. F6 throws ball to first, which sails over F3 and goes into dead ball territory. My partner awards only 2nd base based on Throw. Coach comes out and argues it's from the Pitch and he needs to be given 3rd.

NFHS rules. Looking for the correct ruling.
Please read section 8 and also look at the FED base award table in the book.

This is not the FIRST play by an infielder so the award is 2 bases from TOT.

R1 should have been awarded third base.
